Today is Matthew's fourth birthday! It's hard to believe it's been four years, just as it's hard to believe how old our kids all are as well. I remember going to see them in the hospital and passing Cathy and Joe heading out with their twins born the day before Matthew. I remember how excited and happy Jen and Jeremie were, along with the ecstatic grandparents - Marcia and John. I also remember stepping up to give some advice on a certain subject, just being so excited for them, and maybe it not being the appropriate time. Sorry about that Jen. : ) What a wonderful blessed day that was, just like today.

Today, along with Matthew's family, we celebrate Matthew. One of the sweetest little boys I have ever met and one that touches you to the core once you meet him. He is such a special little boy with a name that means "gift from God" and that he truly is.

And for those of you on facebook, there is a new group called "Help for Matthew Barr and his family"- please take the time to join it and read about it (Matthew was dropped from insurance in May because he hit his lifetime maximum AT THREE YEARS OF AGE - the group is creating ways to raise money for them).
